respect to the entirety of such Shareholder’s share ownership in the Company, to the extent and with the same effect such Shareholder could do under any applicable laws or regulations governing the rights and powers of shareholders of the

or by the occurrence of any other event or events, except as expressly provided herein. If, after the execution of this Irrevocable Proxy, any such event or events shall occur, McEwen is nevertheless authorized and directed to vote the shares in
accordance with the terms of this Irrevocable Proxy as if such death, incapacity, lack of appropriate power or authority or other event or events had not occurred and regardless of notice thereof. This Irrevocable Proxy shall be binding upon, and
enforceable against, all beneficiaries, heirs at law, legatees, distributees, successors, assigns, transferees and legal representatives of the Shareholder.
